Subsequent scholars stressed the apparent presence of house structures, and this and its size led to an interpretation of the site as an urban center. This interpretation remained dominant in Peruvian archaeology until very recently.892.31 KBPDFenAll Rights Reservedarchaeological sitesexcavationsceremonial activitiesArticlehttps://doi.org/10.1086/204330
